You know what I just realized?
About 1% of the world population is born intersex… and people who are born intersex are often forced to undergo reassignment surgery/conform to the gender binary because being born intersex is a ‘birth defect’.
Meanwhile, 1% of the world population is born with red hair, but you don’t see them being forced to dye their hair other colors because red hair isn’t seen as a birth defect.
Hm, maybe that’s because the gender binary is absolute bullshit.
